I dont think it does. I doubt it even has the same suspension as the Tl-P let alone the TL-S.

HUH?????

Just becuase the same aftermarket parts fit both cars doesnt mean that the factory parts are exactly the same. So what if the same Koni shocks and Eibach springs fit the TL, CL, and Accord, does that mean that the factory shocks and springs are exactly the same for all 3 cars?? The same rims that fit on the Accord will fit the Tl-S also, does that mean that the stock Tl-S rims are exactly the same as the Accord?

...unless i got the wrong impression ...this guy is asking because he wants to buy suspension components(aftermarket) and wants to know if 98-02 accord will fit...the springs on a cl-s /tl-s are stiffer...the damping on there struts are more aggresiive but there mounting points are all the same

the mounting points might be the same, but the bolts are different....
the bolts are 10mm apart on our cars, on the accords they are only 8mm apart....this can not be forgotten...

Re: Anyone Know 02 Accord V6 Same Suspension As Tl-s?

They do not carry all the same stock parts, but many. They carry the same suspension theory and dimensions, this is why parts made for the accord fit the TL.

Even the TL-P don't have the same stock parts as the type S.
